RUN HAPPY & RUN FAST + Motivational Fitness Jewelry #Giveaway

I have my lucky ladybird earrings, go-to running shoes and a favorite route (and friend) for long runs. Despite all these creature comforts that get me out the door, I often I lose sight of exactly WHY I’m running. Sometimes running seems like such a chore, I will grumble and grouse about it in not-so-eager anticipation for longer than it actually takes to do the run. But, I’ve noticed time and time again that my mood is elevated, my worries are worked out and my heart is lighter when I finally hit the streets to run– although it can take a few miles to get to this RUN HAPPY state of mind.  Other times, I’m so anxious and excited to run, I can’t even sleep at night. Can I trust my training, will my performance meet my expectations, and will I really be able to RUN FAST? words to sweat by bracelets I’ve been wearing these two motivational bracelets to remind me of why I run – to RUN HAPPY and to RUN FAST.  At first, I thought I’d wear them one at a time, based on the type of run on my day’s agenda – like a race, a track workout or a social run with a friend. But, then I had an “aha” moment and realized my ultimate relationship goal with running is to RUN HAPPY and RUN FAST at the same time (well, most of the time). So, now I’m wearing the bracelets as a pair  and happily reminding myself that the reality of running fast is all relative.

So, I know you are probably in LOVE with these motivational bracelets too– they are from Words to Sweat By, a fun fitness jewelry and apparel online boutique.  The inspirational words are hand-stamped on an aluminum charm and attached to a one-size-fits all jersey cuff.

  1. “Trust God” I always fall back to this when things get tough….It calms me and I can stay focused on what really matters.

  2. I love this cool jewelry! My motto has always been “never give up” because some workouts are a struggle to finish! 🙂

  3. I’m newer to running and so lately my mantra has been let your legs do what they know how to do and tell your brain to be quiet!

  4. Everything on the site is adorable! I especially love the necklace charms for Stronger Every Day and Kettlebell Swinger, but I’d love to get those phrases on a bracelet.

  5. Unbroken or ROAR are two motivational words I use to get through the tough spots and keep going forward.

  6. I just think about how happy I will be in the long run, even if it’s painful or unmotivating today.

  7. As lame-o as this sounds, I sing daniel tiger(because my kids are OBSESSED)
    “Try try try try, try it again… Keep trying, you’ll get better!!”

    Bahahaaa! Hubby and I are just starting this fit journey together! <3

  8. I just remind myself to keep going. I say “one more minute. Anyone can run for one minute” and just keep repeating it

  9. My motivational saying when working out, is JUST KEEP RUNNING. I play it in my head like the fish in Finding Nemo, “just keep swimming, just keep swimming.”

  10. I keep telling myself, “Just a little more…. just a little more…” until I’ve reached my goal.
